Join me and special guest billy woods on Saturday, May 10 at Loudmouth BK for the eighth iteration of Reel Talk, a Reel Notes movie night. We'll be screening the 1997 psychological horror film Cure and talking about his latest album, Golliwog. Tickets and more info here.

My guest this week is London-via-Brooklyn rapper, producer, and model Goya Gumbani. We spoke about The Boys, Invincible, Blade, the work of Spike Lee—particularly Mo’ Better Blues—making music in Brooklyn and how his move to London amplified his creative drive, a brief tour of his discography and one-producer projects, and the creative process behind his latest album Warlord of the Weejuns, out now everywhere via Ghostly International. Come fuck with us. 

Warlord of the Weejuns is available wherever music is sold, streamed, or stolen. Consider copping directly from his Bandcamp. Follow Goya on Instagram (@goya.gumbani), Twitter (@Goyagumbani), and TikTok (@goya.gumbani).

My first book, Reel Notes: Culture Writing on the Margins of Music and Movies, is available now, via 4 PM Publishing. Order a digital copy on Amazon.
